Tips to designing an effective business logo

Posted: 04 June 2021


Business Design

Logos say a lot about your business. It’s usually the first thing your customer sees and is supposed to sum up your business is in an eye-catching nutshell.

While this can seem like a daunting task, there are some simple tricks you can apply to make sure your brand stands out from the crowd. 

1. Simplify: In design, less is more. By simplifying your logo into a neat, clean, and clear icon that perfectly summarises your brand, people will be able to easily identify your company. 

2. Think inside the box: Shapes are your friend. Use organic or geometric forms to create a visually pleasing composition and add volume to flat text. 

3. Be bold: A pop of colour is crucial if you want to stand out. Using one bold and striking colour in your logo will help create a strong brand identity and attract your customers. 

4. Make it versatile: Your logo needs to work on a variety of media, such as billboards, clothing and business cards. Create a mock-up for each of these to ensure it works everywhere. 

5. Have fun: Your logo is a visual representation of your business but it doesn’t have to be bland and boring. Use unique fonts, illustrations and colours to create something memorable. 

A great logo will go a long way in helping you build your business and attract new customers. The good news is that as you grow, you can use self storage as a flexible and affordable extension of your company. No more expensive and long-term office or warehousing leases!
